jamaica.
that's the little island of warmth, sunshine, rasta, and love that i visited a couple of weeks ago and why i've been so absent from the blog world. i just did not have time to schedule posts before i left and was too busy when i got home. here is a little snippet of the trip along with some pics. i know i'll be looking back at these throughout the next several months when we're all stoved up inside this winter.
at the beginning of september SH, myself, my two sisters, and the boyfriend took a getaway to mobay. we have been a few times before and since we're all in love with the island, we decided it was a perfect end of summer destination. originally it was for our 5th anniversary, but then it turned into a trip for the sisters and men.
it was simply fabulous. our resort was excellent. liquor dispenser in the room along with a fridge that's restocked every other day, all the food one can scarf down, and all the drinks a person can consume make for a pretty sweet getaway, not to mention it was very budget friendly.
the cuture is fascinating, reggae is addicting, and the blue waters are inviting.
each day we basically got up, ate breakfast at the buffet, while drinking delicious blue mountain coffee, and spent the day at the beach soaking up the sun with drinks in our hands. honestly most of the time it was water because it was so hot, but we had an occasional ocean dream or daquiri (or five) each beach day.
when it rained most afternoons, we headed to our rooms to nap, hang out together, or head to lobby to people watch. each nite was pretty relaxed and revolved around more food and nitely entertainment.
seven nites just isn't long enough for me. the resort has lots and lots of europeans and did you know they get at least, at least, 8 weeks of vacation a year. most of them are at resorts for two to three weeks. there was definitely a bit of envy and jealousy coming from our group.
it was definitely a much needed vacation that was a trip one has to take to understand. jamaica is like no other place i have been and i have been ready to head back as soon as i shut the door to our room for the last time.
until next time, ja. . .
